    Don’t sell the C6 Zr1 it’s the best corvette ever made of all time it’s unique, cool, and fun to drive. In my opinion it should be a lifer and it’s my favorite car you have and the most fun content too

      You’re speaking the language of a good man. Zr1 - The absolute end all be all of the corvette, I love the zr1, c6 are so good looking. I don’t think there’s any chance I will ever be able to afford a zr1, but I hope to have the ability to at least own a c6 z06. It would suffice.

    Hey Lee here's a good one for you, friction/grip isn't surface area related, this is relevant to your assumptions around tyre contact patch and supercharger pulley contact patch.
    A wider tyre doesn't give you more grip it is the compound that gives you the extra grip, the tyre is wider so it doesn't wear out being a softer compound.
    If you want to lessen supercharger belt slip you need to look at softer compounds rather than worrying about contact area.
    Great videos, keep it up 👍

    Streetspeed 717 did the same thing with his 1000 hp LMR modified 2011 ZR 1 when he did a run, the belt broke and cut up his coolant hose too.
